Hi everyone, I made this for a university class a couple of years ago as an assignment and didn't think of anyone ever watching it. Glad it's helped some people. If you aren't sure which relay to get, I have 2 suggestions. 1. Pull it out and inspect it for a part number. 2. Read the specs of your unit online on the company's website. Good luck!
Thank you so much for this video!! My water cooler stop cooling, call a “water cooler technician “, he didn’t even go to this part of the unit, told me my board was bad, (as he did direct power to my condenser and it came on) which seemed weird to me (and I voiced that but hey I’m not the technician) that the ONLY part of the board not work was the cooling part. Said he’d look for a board for my water cooler and I paid the service charge (which was 50$ as he was giving me a break from his regular price of 75$) Saw your video, ordered on Amazon that cost me 7.99$, put the part in myself and it’s working perfectly .
Thank you . Really appreciate time you took to make this video. I had cooler sitting down for months. Was thinking of getting rid of it. I installed a relay I had from another similar cooler and it worked. Thank you. Saved me $250.
Worked on my car as well. AC was not working for years I thought I had a bad compressor which is very expensive. It turns out it just needed a new $12 AC relay!!!!
I just finished cleaning mine up after a couple of days of having it broken down. I noticed while doing so that the styrofoam casing is cracked. I just put the new bottle on. Everything seems to be running ok, but the bottle doesnt seem to be cooling. The body of the unit feels cold to the touch. Do you think I need to patch the crack? I have a Crystal Mountain cooler. Thanks.
Thank you for the video hope mine works after buying thix Starter Relay. Is there a way you can put the link from Amazon to buy the right one pls. I haven't seen one that looks like the one I pulled out. Thank you once more.
Hi Jacob! I just watched your video and I'm hoping that it's just the relay switch for my water dispenser. It's an older model Sunbeam. The model number is: YLR2-5-67H3 Would you happen to know what type of relay I will need for this particular model? I'm not even sure where it's located at either. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
I mean I would flip your unit around and listen, most compressors are audible. Unplug it then plug it in you should hear compressor start. If it does then this relay fix isn't your issue
"Same issue" as a couple of you. I have the part. But it's no use if I can't get to it "TO" change it. There's a black cover and I don't know how to get it off without breaking it. HELP!!!
I would look up the product on the company's website and look at the power diagram. Try to see if there is any other relays, switches, etc. If there isn't, then maybe the compressor is shot.
do yourself a favor if you're a parts changer, and that's test the relay first before you go out and blindly buy another one. since it may not be the culprit to the problem.
Great job !!! Thanks flr the schooling.. Jjst one tiny thing, next time dont mumbling speak clearly and little bit loud I bearly can hear wat you said, I have to amplifying the sound, ( My non asked opinion 🤭 )

This saved me having to buy a new one $$$. Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much for saving me hundreds of dollars for a new one.
Wow, amazing , Just open the back, put your hand inside and remove the relay.... 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 best DIY in the world... here 🏆, this is for you.
Thank you for your video, it allowed me to fix my water dispenser!
Worked on my car as well. AC was not working for years I thought I had a bad compressor which is very expensive. It turns out it just needed a new $12 AC relay!!!!
Just fixed my problem after watching your video. The relay was not plugged in. Thanks
I see a lot of starter relays on Amazon, does it need to be specific to your water cooler or will any work?
It’s also recommended to change the overload when the relay goes out.
Is that the second switch connected to this switch?
Thanks I just touched the starter and it worked again
Thank god for hero’s like you
How you get the black cover off of the relay
Got mine fix today 👍👍 thanks
How do you get the cover off that is over the relay? Primo won't help
How do you get the cover off that is on the relay for the Primo.
Use screwdriver to release clip
How did you get that black plastic casing. Over the relay off? I don’t wanna break it lol
Should use a screw driver to release the clip
Awesome. Gonna try this. Thank you 🙏

Will you please put a link in your description. I cannot find it for $4.45. I can’t even find a part that looks like the one that you have.

You should be able to find the manual for the unit online and find the part number that way. Or call Sunbeam and ask them

Your the man👍🏻👍🏻
My compressor doesn't turn on but I hear the unit click to try to turn it on. I changed the relay but it didn't fix it. Any other ideas?

I’m having the same issues. Compressor is not on but hear clicking sound. Did you end up figuring out how to fix it?
Also keep hearing the clicking sound, as if something is trying to turn on but nothing is happening.
link?
thank you man
Does anyone know how to stop water leaking from the drain valve?
Mine keeps freezing
My water dispenser not cooling how can I repair?
The problem im having is that its not as cold as it should be...
There is an adjustment screw on the thermostat if you haven’t found it by now
@@Samlol23_drrich I havent found it.. I checked in the back and dont see one.. unless I have to take it apart
that could mean you need more freon
That was about as clear as mud.
do yourself a favor if you're a parts changer, and that's test the relay first before you go out and blindly buy another one. since it may not be the culprit to the problem.
How do you test the starter relay? Do you use a multimeter?
Great job !!!
Thanks flr the schooling..

( My non asked opinion 🤭 )
Your camera guy sucks. Too much movement and not clear shots of the components. Just saying. Good explanation though.
Junk. These things are junk. Get a refrigerator.
